Description

Crafting this ultimate breakfast sandwich blends savory bacon, creamy eggs, and melted cheese between perfectly toasted sourdough bread. Flavor-packed layers promise a satisfying morning meal that elevates simple ingredients into a delightful culinary experience you’ll crave.


Ingredients

Scale

Protein:

  • 8 large eggs
  • 4 slices crispy bacon
  • 4 slices pepperjack cheese

Bread and Condiments:

  • 4 buttery croissants, halved
  • 1/2 cup (118 milliliters / 4 fluid ounces) fresh guacamole
  • 1/2 cup (118 milliliters / 4 fluid ounces) basic garlic butter tomato sauce

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and position a rack in the center. Carefully slice croissants horizontally, ensuring an even cut.
  2. Arrange croissant halves cut-side down on a baking sheet, creating a single layer. Toast for 3-4 minutes until edges turn golden and surfaces become slightly crisp.
  3. While croissants are toasting, prepare soft scrambled eggs in a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Gently fold eggs continuously, creating creamy, delicate curds.
  4. Spread a thin layer of tomato sauce on the bottom half of each toasted croissant, creating a flavorful base.
  5. Transfer warm, creamy scrambled eggs directly onto the tomato sauce, ensuring even distribution.
  6. Layer a slice of pepperjack cheese over the eggs, allowing residual heat to slightly melt the cheese.
  7. Carefully place crispy bacon strips on top of the melting cheese.
  8. Generously spread fresh guacamole across the bacon, adding a creamy, rich texture.
  9. Crown the sandwich by placing the top croissant half, pressing gently to secure all layers.
  10. Slice diagonally and serve immediately while ingredients remain warm and textures are at their peak.

Notes

  • Swap croissants for gluten-free alternatives to make the sandwich celiac-friendly and ensure everyone can enjoy this delicious breakfast.
  • Use turkey bacon or plant-based bacon strips for a lighter protein option that reduces overall saturated fat content while maintaining great flavor.
  • Soft scrambled eggs require gentle heat and constant stirring to achieve creamy, luxurious texture without becoming dry or rubbery.
  • Customize guacamole with extra herbs like cilantro or a splash of lime juice to elevate the sandwich’s freshness and add a bright, zesty dimension.
